The finals of the
Major Minor Pairs has been played this afternoon in arduous conditions. The
social players only managed to play for an hour and a half before they sought
the warmth of the club house. David Nelson and Peter (Rocket) Dowling were up
against Jack Lundberg with substitute Tom Pisano for Simon Pleming. Jack and
Tom got away to a strong start taking a ten shot lead. But David and Rocket
weren’t out of it. They fought back to
16 shots all by the end of the 18th end. One shot for each team were
claimed on the 19th and 20th ends. With Jack having the
last shot to play David and Rocket were holding one shot, Jack played it well
and rattled into the head to take the win by one shot.
Congratulations to
Jack and Tom and commiserations to Peter and David. Thanks to umpire Jim for
not leaving his post in the cold and wet conditions.
